Governor Kit Bond Rescinds Extermination Order

June 25th, 1976 48 years ago

Missouri Governor Kit Bond issued an executive order to rescind the 1838 Extermination Order against members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This act served as a formal apology on behalf of the state for the past injustices endured by the Latter-day Saints under the order that had mandated their expulsion from Missouri. The governor's action aimed to recognize and rectify this historical wrong, fostering a better relationship between the state government and the LDS community.
